    The bot is only “spreading misinformation” to people who are too stupid to realise that “left” and “right” mean politically different things in different countries

    Mostly the yanks

      What this bot does is analyze US media companies that you Euros would consider “centre right” and mislabels them instead as left.

      This is done to shift what we Yanks call “the Overton window” to the right.

      The Overton window has been shifting right for decades, which is why “left” and “right” have such a different meaning over here across the pond.
